LNER Gresley C2 class 4-4-2 (Klondyke) no. 3260

LNER Gresley C2 class 4-4-2 (Klondyke) no. 3260. A famous model that I am privileged to add to my collection. Built from scratch and painted by my old mate Graham Jaques. RG7 Portescap motor and gear unit, cast wheels, probably Walsall, with the webs between the spokes skilfully removed by file, plunger pickups collecting current from one side of the loco and tender, the other side collects current via the non-insulated cast wheels. I’m lucky enough to own a few of Grahams models, but this is special because it is a past winner of the Gauge O guild Chairmans cup.
